Hello, I plan on self hosting voyager for personal use, if I don’t expose my instance to the internet and install the pwa when on my local lan, can I use all of the features of voyager when I’m away from home? Or does my instance need to be available at all time? My understand of a pwa is I can add it to my home screen and use it like a traditional app… please correct me if I’m wrong
If you don’t expose the server to the Internet, it will only be available on your local network.
You will need to open ports for it to remain accessible or set up a VPN.
It depends on the app, but from what I can read here
Once installed, you will have app shortcuts on your desktop and start menu (or wherever these things go in your operating system). You can now start the app in near-instant time! It works without internet. It’ll update itself quietly in the background when we post a new version.
So technically yeah you could, but the point of a self-hosted server is to be available anywhere and anytime.
